Zhang Zhong finally posted an update. Although he was promoting books, most fans were more concerned about Zhang Zhong's own books.
Although "After School" was released last month, the response was not very enthusiastic and could not be compared with the previous "Dune" and "Wandering Sea Ball".
This month, the physical version of "I, Robot" will be released. The company has already announced this online. Although everyone is looking forward to the physical version, many people have read this book and it has not been released for a long time.
What a surprise.
However, there is news that you may see another book by Zhang Zhong this month, but the company has not said what kind of book it is and what type it is, and Zhang Zhong has not disclosed the information.
So if they caught Zhang Zhong at this time, they would not miss this good opportunity.
【Hey, will there be two books coming to us this month?】
[Don’t just push other people’s books, can you make some progress?]
[I feel sorry for you upstairs. Zhang Zhong can be said to be a model worker in the literary world. Looking at the entire history of literature, there are very few people who are as productive as him.]
[There are still a few, I hope Zhang Zhong can surpass these people as soon as possible. 】
[That’s too much. The quality of those people’s books is completely incomparable to Zhang Zhong’s. We can’t let him fill it in. 】
[When Zhang Zhong gave a speech at our school this afternoon, he said that his magazine might be coming out soon.]
【Magazine, real or fake.】
【It's absolutely true, he said it himself.】
…
[I went and checked just now. Zhang Zhong’s company really bought a magazine.]
[Their company’s magazine should not contain all his works.]
[Even if it’s not all his works, it’s okay to have one or two in each issue.]
[There are one or two in each issue...it would be good to have one every few issues.]
…
Zhang Zhong also saw the comments from netizens.
All in all, his publishing speed is definitely fast. However, it is probably not the fastest. The output of some writers exceeds many people's imagination.
On earth, when it comes to production, the ones who impressed Zhang Zhong most are Zhang Henshui, Alexandre Dumas, Ni Kuang and Solzhenitsyn.
The word count of each of their works is between 30 and 40 million, and their creation speed is not much faster than that of current online novel writers.
Even among online writers, few can write 30 to 40 million words.
If the works of Ni Kuang and Alexandre Dumas are still seriously watered down, and Alexandre Dumas is even called gunman literature, then Solzhenitsyn is really amazing.
Because Solzhenitsyn has always been on the path of mainstream literature and even won the Nobel Prize for Literature.
Zhang Zhong quickly replied to netizens online, and he simply explained his latest plan.
"As expected, two books will be available in bookstores this month. One is "I, Robot". There is not much to say because many people have read it, but even so, when the book is on the shelves,
I also hope that everyone can support it. There is another book, the protagonist is Poirot. I won’t say too much about the others. Let everyone make up their mind. As for the title of the book, everyone will know it in a few days. Except for two books
In addition to the single volume, our magazine "Zero Zero One" will also be available to you. It shouldn't take too long. There will definitely be more than one of my works in the first issue."
The name of the magazine is also called "Zero Zero One".
Changing the name was a bit troublesome, and Zhang Zhong felt that the name "Zero Zero One" was not bad and there was no need to change it.
[Here, are you really going to release a new work in the Poirot series? I’m going to offer incense to my dead roommate and tell him that the Poirot series he has been waiting for is finally going to be released.]
[Have you played the joke upstairs? "The Mysterious Case of Styles Manor" was released only a few months ago, less than a year. 】
[The feeling of time is relative, because after "The Mysterious Case of Styles Manor", we have also experienced many books, which makes people feel that a long time has passed. 】
[Well, if you are an ordinary author, it will probably take several years after these books are released. 】
[If it were an ordinary author, Zhang Zhong would definitely be chewing on the old books of the Poirot series.]
[The magazine "Zero Zero One" is so familiar. I seem to have heard of it before. 】
[You should have heard of it, after all, I bought it from someone else.]
[I know some inside information. This magazine was previously a magazine owned by Mr. Zhang, but its management was not very satisfactory.]
[I also bought a magazine, which contained quite a variety of contents. It had everything.]
[What is the theme of the new magazine? Will it all be detective mystery, suspense and science fiction? 】
[Upstairs, you mentioned several categories at once.]
[It shouldn’t be in these categories, no matter what, as long as there is a book with Zhang Zhong in it, I will definitely buy it. 】
[Zhang Zhong doesn’t make money, does he put one of his articles in each magazine, and then we have to buy a whole magazine? 】
[Money trap... How dare you say, how much money can he trap for just how much money a magazine costs?】
[Yeah, I think it’s worth buying an article by him for a few dollars.]
【Fujia, Youhu?】
[Translation: Rich people, can we be friends? 】
[Don’t think nonsense, everyone, Zhang Zhong can’t make fun of his reputation, after all, he is not short of money.]
[I guess he doesn’t have enough money. I heard that the car he drives is very cheap, only 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.]
[You only saw him driving a car worth 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, but have you seen the pens he signed for people? They cost tens of thousands of yuan.]
[Is tens of thousands of dollars money to him? 】
【md, Jealousy has torn me apart.】
[It is said that Zhang Zhong’s royalties have exceeded ten figures.]
【Ten digits, billions?】
[It’s almost the same. After all, if a book earns three yuan, selling 100 million copies will result in 300 million yuan. 】
[A book must cost more than three yuan, and its total sales must be more than 100 million. In addition, he also has various adaptation copyright fees. 】
[Does anyone have authoritative data on the global sales of Zhang Zhong’s books?]
[It is estimated to be 200 million. "Dune" alone has sold more than 30 million in North America and China. The previous "Flowers for Algernon" also sold more than 20 million worldwide. These two books combined
There are fifty to sixty million. In addition, Zhang Zhong also has many books with global sales of over ten million, so he must have had two hundred million.】
[Twenty million copies sold a year, circling the earth several times...]
At first, everyone was discussing what Zhang Zhong had done, but soon the building tilted and they began to discuss how much money Zhang Zhong had earned.
…
Early the next morning, Cheng Yue told the editor what happened online last night.
After hearing this, the editor-in-chief Yao Xue was not too excited. She just said, "Let's wait and see. I am a little impressed by Teacher Xu's book. The audience is not very wide. Don't look at the fierce hype on the Internet. Maybe it will be a thunderstorm."
A little smaller.”
Cheng Yue nodded. She knew that the editor-in-chief had always been the kind of person who would never let go of the rabbit before he saw it.
